basic form question - two forms one page. ??
Hi,
I have an asp.net 2.0 page that has two sections. Each section allows the
user to enter a value into a text box, click a button and then perform some
function. Each text boxes function is different to the other and takes the
user to a different part of the web site after doing some SQL work
I have placed a form tag around each of the text boxes section. Each has a
different 'form id', however when i try to execute the web site, it says 'A
page can have only one server-side form tag.
How do i cope with my situation ?
Thanks

Use one form.
Each button has its own server-side events, so just take appropriate action
as required.
E.g.
Button1 does its processing and then does a Response.Redirect to page2.aspx
(or whatever)
Button2 does its processing and then does a Response.Redirect to page7.aspx
(or whatever)

Re: basic form question - two forms one page. ??
You can have multiple forms but only one can be server-side e.g with
runat="server". You can use cross-page postbacks in ASP.NET 2.0 to post on
different pages per button basis (set PostBackUrl="targetpage.aspx" on the
Button) while having single form on the Page. Assuming that you initiate
some task based on Button click...

Re: basic form question - two forms one page. ??
Hi Aussie,
The ASP.NET web page is a customized html based web page, one particularity
is that ASP.NET web page use a <form> with "runat=server" attribute, this
is used as the container of any other ASP.NET server controls, and all
those server controls' postback event can be correctly detected if they're
put inside this server-side form tag. Also, there can only contains single
"runat=server" <form> tag in an ASP.NET web page.
For your scenario, if you want to post different data field entries through
different button on the same page, I think you can consider the following
two means:
1. If you're using ASP.NET 2.0, you can utilize the "cross-page post"
feature, this can let you define multiple buttons on a single page and
configure them to postbac k to different url:
#How to: Post ASP.NET Web Pages to a Different Page
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178140.aspx
#Cross-Page Posting in ASP.NET Web Pages
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178139.aspx
2. You can certainly put multiple html <form> tags in a single ASP.NET web
page. However, make sure that only one form has the "runat" attribute set
as "true". Also, for ASP.NET server controls, they can only be put in
"runat=server" <form> e.g.
=======in aspx page========
<body>
...
<form id="form1" runat="server">
you can put ASP.NET server controls here
.........
</form>
<form id="form2" action="other page'>
you can put only pure html elements here
........
</form>
<form id="form2" action="other page'>
you can put only pure html elements here
........
</form>
........
